A few days ago, we had heard that Nintendo France banned Hero from the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate European Team Cup. Now, however, that decision has been reversed.

Nintendo has said in a statement that it will standardize rulesets for all tournaments on the European Team Cup circuit following the French qualifiers’s deviation. As part of that, Hero can be used going forward. The character had been eligible in other regions for the same tournament.

Nintendo’s full statement reads:

Mario Kart Tour has already been installed 10.1 million times worldwide, according to an Apptopia report. Downloads are expected to increase further in the coming days due to factors like word of mouth.

Mario Kart Tour is by far the biggest debut for Nintendo on mobile. The next closest game, Super Mario Run, saw 4.7 million installs on launch day. It also beat out Pokemon GO, which released with 6.7 million downloads.

Interestingly, Mario Kart Tour had a very positive effect on Super Mario Run. Super Mario Run was installed 200,000 times yesterday, which is 36 percent above its daily average over the past 30 days.
